Pan-seared Salmon

Pan-Seared Salmon

Pan-seared salmon is a delicious, quick and easy meal for any busy night. The benefits of this amazing fish are almost limitless. I try to have salmon at least twice a week. This pan-seared recipe is one of the quickest and easiest- perfect for a busy night. Remember, always buy wild-caught salmon.

Salmon is:

• Rich is Omega-3 Fatty Acids

• A great source of high-quality protein

• High in B vitamins

• A good source of potassium

• Loaded with selenium which helps protect bone health, decreases thyroid antibodies. Studies even show it may reduce the risk of cancer!

• Contains the antioxidant astaxanthin which reduces bad cholesterol and increases good cholesterol.

• May reduce the risk of heart disease

• Helps with weight control. Because it’s high in protein, it helps regulate hormones that control appetite.

• Helps fight inflammation

1 tbsp salted butter

1 1 lb. salmon fillet, cut into 2-3 portions

1/2 tsp fine sea salt

1/4 tsp ground black pepper

Melt the butter in a large cast-iron, enameled, or stainless-steel frying pan over high heat. Sprinkle the salmon with the salt and pepper.

Sear the salmon for 3 minutes per side, or until the fish flakes at the thickest part. Let rest for 5 minutes before serving.

“I am down 9.9lbs and a bunch of inches in 30 days.I didn’t measure before because I didn’t know if I was gonna stick to it (bad move on my part), but I didn’t realize how much wheat I was eating until I cut it out during this slimdown.

Thank you, Amy. I feel so energized and not only that – my mind is clearer and more focused.”
